Protein Goal/Shopping List



Recommended Posts

I'm having trouble getting the Protein drinks down. My tastes has completely changed and I wasn't expecting that. Even looking at the packages makes me sick. I don't recommend New whey. It's all sickly sweet and tastes the same to me. Can you taste unflavored powdered?

I'm 3 months post-op and I can't stomach not one more Protein shake. I'm having such a hard time getting my Protein in. My hair is beginning to come out and I feel like I'm malnourished. The thought of eating yogurt every day for Breakfast makes me want to hurl. I can't eat eggs. I try to get my protein in at lunch and dinner but I know I'm failing miserably. Any suggestions from anyone?

Have you tried any bars? I eat nuts, cheese, turkey Jerky, coconut Water with Protein, Peanut Butter. I was sleeved in June and my hair fell out in October, November and December, like 50%. It wasn't due to protein deficiency. If you get in 40 to 50 g of protein you're OK. I think people getting 80 or above, that is just too much unless you're an athlete. Just eat many times during the day. I know it's tough and you feel like you're not getting enough sometimes, but just try to do the best you can. I never drank shakes. Good luck. ????

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
